I have been useing shell scripts for mail but not only is it slow but I cant get it to work right. (sigh or at least the way I want) I want to be able to read unix style mail (i.e. the same file format that xenix mail and mush uses) and reply, as well as orginate mail with it. I have to be able to specify the editor to use and it must have no shell escapes. This must work only for the spool area that I define. I know that it sounds really simple, and I should probably write my own, but I never seem to have enough time. So I thought that perhaps I would check here first. Let me apologize for posting to pubnet.wanted, I dont get the pubnet groups. I probably will in the future but untill I can decide what to discontinue in my current feed I do not. Please reply to dec@daves.sr.com thank you for your patience. Thanks in advance. Dave. --- David Compton, INTERNET: dec@daves.SR.COM (I speak for no one but myself.)
